Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Body mass index (BMI) 18 to 32 kg/m2;
  • Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) ≥80% of predicted for race, age, sex, and height;
  • FEV1/FVC (forced vital capacity) ratio ≥70%;
  • Smokers are defined as those currently smoking at least 10 cigarettes/day for at least 12 months with a positive urinary cotinine result and with no past (within 5 years) or present history of intrinsic lung disease (e.g. asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD], chronic bronchitis, or other relevant conditions);
  • Non-smokers are defined as those who never smoked or were exposed to less than 1 pack year within at least 12 months and with a negative urinary cotinine result.

Exclusion criteria

  • Subject who is not surgically sterile or female subject who is less than 2 years postmenopausal, and who does not agree to use a highly effective birth control method during the study and up to 3 months after the last dose of investigational product;
  • Any flu-like syndrome or other respiratory infections within 2 weeks prior to the Screening Visit;
  • History of chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) requiring intermittent or continuous use of any oral or inhaled medication therapy within last 3 years;
  • Renal impairment as defined by a calculated creatinine clearance of ≤ 80 mL/minute;
  • History of syncope within the last 6 months.

Treatment and study plan

CVT-301

Drug

Levodopa inhalation powder, will be supplied in capsules containing levodopa (l-dopa), designed to deliver to the lung using the CVT-301 inhaler.

Carbidopa

Drug

Administered orally according to the carbidopa dosing schedule.

Other names: Lodosyn ®

Primary outcomes

  1. Maximum observed plasma drug concentration (Cmax)

    Time frame: within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose

  2. Time to maximum observed plasma drug concentration (tmax)

    Time frame: within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose

  3. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)

    Time frame: within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in pulmonary function

    Time frame: within 90 min prior to CVT-301 dose and at specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose

    Pulmonary function will be measured by spirometry using the guideline specified by the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III)

  2. Number of subjects with Adverse Events (AEs) including Serious AEs

    Time frame: up to 3 days
